To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, WESLEY S. PALMER, acitizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county of Starkand State of Ohio,

The present invention has relation to kettle scrapers and cleaners; andit consists in the novel arrangement hereinafter described, andparticularly pointed out in the claim.

Similar numerals'of reference indicate corresponding parts in all thefigures of the drawlngs.

In the accompanying drawings, 1 represents the handle, which is formedof two wires or parts twisted together and the parts extended in eitherdirection to form the diverging arms 2 and 3. The outer ends of thediverging arms 2 are bent at an angle to the arms 3 and folded so as toform recesses 4,

into which recesses the scraping-plate 5 is seated and securely fixed inany convenient and well-known manner. The arms 3 are provided with thebent portions 6, which bent portions are so formed that they willform anopen space, into which space the binding-strip 7 is seated and securelyconnected to the bent portions 6 of the arms 3. The binding-strip SerialNo. 6 1,833. (No model.)

'7 is U shaped in cross-section and is so formed for the purpose ofproviding a means for clamping the elastic block 8, which elastic blockis substantially of the form shown and is preferably formed of rubber.

It will be understood that by mypeculiar arrangement I am enabled toprovide at one end of the handle a scraper and at the opposite endthereof a cleaning device.

It will of course be understood that the scraper 5 should be formed ofmetal and have a blunt edge, so as to provide a suitable scraper toremove material adhering to the kettle or other utensil.

The binding-strip 7 is securely connected to the bent portions 6 in anyconvenient and well-known manner. 7

Having fully described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is;
